Finding Ramen for Lunch
Ramen is one of the best lunch options in any city — a complete, satisfying meal that arrives fast, costs less than dinner, and keeps you going for hours. Many ramen restaurants offer lunch specials with a smaller bowl and a side (gyoza, rice, or karaage) at a reduced price.
